they were supposed to have come to washington to change washington and come there with the idea of term limits and not serving there as a career. they have only been there a term, and they are afraid to cast a vote that they think could be misrepresented against them in a primary because they want to stay there. there's something really wrong with this picture, and it's really surreal because they caused the fiscal cliff to occur when they raised the debt ceiling that's never been an issue, made it an issue. couldn't agree to big cuts and came up with the sequester and now they can't deal with that. the fact is you can see when speaker boehner can't even have his caucus follow him, how could the president have worked with this crowd over the last two years and all that rhetoric we heard about president obama not reaching across and being bipartisan you can see you can't go and do something with a group that's incapable of even supporting their own leader. >> so what or who do you see has the best hope to resolve this situation? >> there's no question it's president obama and senator rei
